【答案】
(1)D
(2)D
(3)A
(4)B
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,作者介绍了纳瓦霍人的一种文化:
由祖父母来教育孙子辈,让他们学到生活中的道理。
(1)考查细节理解。
根据第一段中的"grandparentsaretheteachersoftheNavajo(纳瓦霍人)youth.Theymakeyoungpeopleawareoflifeatanearlyage."可知,祖父母们是年轻人的老师,使年轻人在很小的时候就认识生活。
故选D。
(2)考查推理判断。
根据第六段中的"Grandson,ourplantswillbefarmorebeautifulthantheflowersoutsidethefence."以及"Anythingthatisapartofyouisalwaysfarmorebeautifulthanthethingswhichyoupassby."可知,祖母种植玉米和南瓜是为了让作者明白一个生活的道理:
任何属于你的东西,总是比你路过的东西更美。
从而推断出祖母是想让她的孙子学到人生的一课。
故选D。
(3)考查推理判断。
第一段提出“纳瓦霍人的孙子辈主要由祖父母来教育,他们在抚养孩子方面起了很大的作用”,接着对此进行了详细的介绍。
最后一段“那些被他们的祖父母教导所感动的年轻人,已经发找到了一种大多数人今天所不知道的生活方式”。
由此可推断出本文主要介绍了纳瓦霍人的一种文化:
由祖父母们教育孙子辈,让他们认识生活,学到其中的道理。
故选A。
(4)考查主旨大意。
第一段中的"grandparentsaretheteachersoftheNavajo(纳瓦霍人)youth.Theymakeyoungpeopleawareoflifeatanearlyage."纳瓦霍人的祖父母们成为年轻一代人的老师,在教育孙子辈起着重要的作用。
是主旨句,接着下文较为详细地介绍了纳瓦霍人的这种文化。
由此可推断出作者是与读者分享一种纳瓦霍人的文化。
由选B。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,推理判断和主旨大意三个题型的考查,是一篇文化类阅读,要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析,推理,概括和归纳,从而选出正确答案。
